Hidden within the process of finding the mysterious, da"at (wisdom) Esoteric- greek word eso , those things that are hidden, anything that is mysterious and continually defines explanation- eso becomes mystical, it cannot be brought into words. Certain types/versions of god (sephirot)- 10 versions, god does things for reality to exist. God is in everything that is creation, kabbalah says that anything is tied up with these divine characterizes. Creation of adam- nothing at first, just clay, but it is transformed when god breathes into it, he is infusing the clay doll with his energy. Fusion of immortality and mortality is where we get life. Fusing energy into something not real makes it real. Made the mind able to understand something of this complexity. Kabbalah says it is a process, which beings with a awareness.
